Renaissance Bride

I created the image of this bride laying on a love seat with beautiful light, during a wedding in St. Petersburg, Russia. I shot this moment with one light through a grid to create an amazing feeling of daylight shining through a window. The bride’s relaxed pose for this photograph was inspired by renaissance paintings, with her beautiful dress flowing down the love seat she is sitting on. This image beautifully demonstrates how emotionally evocative wedding photography can be created out of almost any situation with the correct application of technique.
